Nitrate concentration comparison in the Suwannee River Basin Sara Santarelli

Project summary
Goals:

Project DescriptionA. Since 1971 nitrate concentrations in the Suwannee River have been increasing at a rate of 0.02 mg/L per year. The rise of nitrate concentrations found in the Suwannee River basin must be addressed. This problem is of extreme significance not only to hydrogeologists, but also anyone who cares about preserving natural Florida. Attempts to remove nitrate concentrations have been unsuccessful and limiting the amount used in agriculture will take years to improve the changed groundwater chemistry. B. Suwannee river basin is located on one of the most productive aquifers in the world, the Floridian Aquifer. Jacksonville, Tallahassee, and Orlando all rely on the Floridian aquifer as the primary water source. The aquifer is recharged when rain and groundwater seep through the soil, and discharged through several springs and rivers. However, human impact and other factors have been adversely affecting the Floridian Aquifer for over fifty years. Water sampling through the decades has proven the rise of nitrate concentrations at specific locations in the Suwannee River Basin. Nitrate, nitrate-nitrogen, is required for growth and reproduction of aquatic fauna in small natural amounts. However, septic tanks, atmospheric deposition, animal waste and agriculture have caused nitrate concentrations to rise significantly. Nitrate used in agriculture leaches down into the Floridian aquifer though groundwater recharge, and is then discharged into a spring. High concentrations of nitrate create an imbalance in the natural groundwater chemistry, which affects the entire ecosystem. Although plants need a small amount of nitrate, high concentrations cause algae and other vegetation to over grow. Aquatic animals such as fish, shellfish, and aquatic invertebrates require dissolved oxygen to live. However, as the overgrown vegetation dies and decomposes,...

In this chosen field there are certain details that can never be somewhat over looked. You need to remember certain things but never once for a split second be ignored. Stakeholders have HIGH expectations and these expectations have to be met by the staff and people who are involved in your program your program must have a vision, mission and objectives. According to Influence of stakeholders (2013 January 1st) Http://www.bbc.uk/schools (Influence of stakeholders . (Owners have a big say in how the aims of the business are decided, but other groups also have an influence over decision making)
Some of the following are examples of population, just to give everyone a simple idea. People who plan to change their efforts, and policy makers who target advocacy efforts. Secondary stakeholders are those who are directly responsible for all the efforts taken. For example: Employers, medical professionals, and social workers. Last but not least we have the key stake holders; these are the big important guys, although they’re all important in their own way. The reason I say they are the big guys, is because these people can pass laws, and enforce them in whatever way they need to. For example they’re would be “policy makers” The media, board members and local community leaders. These people play a big role regardless.
It’s very important to try and set goals, without goals you have nothing, such as a vision, a mission statement. Etc. This will show...

...How to Write a Project Proposal (for your final thesis or
doctoral/ postdoctoral project)
INTRODUCTION
When applying for a scholarship within MULTIC to write your final thesis for your
bachelor/master/doctoral studies or if you are applying for a full PhD or a
Postdoc position, you are asked to submit a project proposal, at least in part,
since individually led research is still the norm at most European universities.
Naturally, the proposal should be more extensive, if you are applying for a full
doctoral position and less so, if you are only applying to do part of your research
at the host university or if you want to write your final thesis for your
bachelor/master or specialist studies.
The purpose of the proposal is to ensure that the candidates have done sufficient
preliminary reading/research in the area of their interest, that they have thought
about the issues involved and are able to provide more than a broad description
of the topic which they are planning to research. The proposal is of course not a
fixed blueprint. Findings cannot be predicted beforehand and often the research
may need to be modified as you go along. There is also no fixed formula for
writing a proposal. However, your proposal will have to convince members of the
academic community that you have identified a scientific problem and a
methodical approach to solve the problem...

ABSTRACT
This document is a proposal for the “Online Notice Board System” as a major project for my
partial fulfilment of the course of Bachelors in Information Technology.
The system will be a client-server model and also web-based to facilitate easy access to all
clients regard less of where they are and also of the machines they are using. I will also try
to intergrate the system from the computer desktop program into a mobile application app
such as Android and Windows mobile.

A Proposal: A Good Man is Hard to Find
In 1953, the short story “A Good Man is Hard to Find” was published in the
anthology Modern Writing I by Avon Publications. Around the year 1955, a collection of
short stories by Flannery O’Connor became published. The themes of these stories range
from baptism to serial killers and then to human greed and exploration. For the majority
of these novels, the main character undergoes a spiritual change due to violent scenes. In
1960, “A Good Man is Hard to Find” was collected in the anthology The House of
Fiction, published by Charles Scribner’s Sons. This novelette became the most well
known of O’Connor’s works because of its publications in numerous anthologies.
O’Connor took her story title from a blues song “A Good Man is Hard to Find”. This
song was popularized by a singer, Bessie Smith, after being written by Eddie Green. At this time, morals played a big role in society.
At the beginning of the story, Grandmother wore a navy blue straw sailor hat with a bunch of white violets on the brim. Also, she had on a navy blue dress with a small white dot in the print. Her collars and cuffs were white trimmed with lace. The necklace she was wearing had a purple spray of cloth violets pinned to it. This hat and outfit was a symbol of her moral code....

...﻿Introduction
Natural environment encompasses all living and non- living thing. In the natural environment there are interactions between all the living species. Natural environment is often used as a synonym for habitat. Nowadays there are lot of issues and problem that occur in the natural environment. For an example, pollution this is the main problem in our natural environment. There are water pollution, and air pollution everywhere. This is what causing the arising of negative impact to the earth for an example, ozone layer thinning which is cause by the air pollution.
In order to prevent pollution we have to motivate others and ourselves to love the environment, be moderate in using fertilizer and pesticides, do not throw litter in the river lake or oceans, do lots of activities regarding to cleaning our environment, and save energy around the house. The program that we are going to launch is Going Green. Where there will be lots of activities and talk regarding the environment. The objective of our program is to increase awareness among community.
Motivation
This pollution matter has been going on since many places in the world start to developed. When the community start to get busy into modernizing the world they don’t really care what is happening around them. This matter has to be taken seriously because the earth is the place where we are living, and the earth is dying.
Due to the pollution there are lots of problem that will arise and of course...
